Event
Work work work

Here and Now: 3rd day of period.
I am thankful for a good nights sleep, recalling last night's event, I think I ate too much, but I did have some red wine and we sat at the table together with David and Kim, Table 18 when we were supposedly sitting at Table 13 with Uncle Robert. But Dad enjoyed talking to his nephews and so did David. I was glad to sit there, hiding... it was a comfortable crowd sitting with them.

Scripture

Psalms 45

English Standard Version

Your Throne, O God, Is Forever

To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Maskil[a] of the Sons of Korah; a love song.

My heart overflows with a pleasing theme;    I address my verses to the king;    my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe.

You are the most handsome of the sons of men; grace is poured upon your lips; therefore God has blessed you forever.

Gird your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, in your splendor and majesty!

In your majesty ride out victoriously for the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness;    let your right hand teach you awesome deeds!

Your arrows are sharp    in the heart of the king's enemies;    the peoples fall under you.

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.    The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness;

you have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you    with the oil of gladness beyond your companions;

your robes are all fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia. From ivory palaces stringed instruments make you glad;

9 daughters of kings are among your ladies of honor;    at your right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir.

10 Hear, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear: forget your people and your father's house,

11 and the king will desire your beauty. Since he is your lord, bow to him.

12 The people[b] of Tyre will seek your favor with gifts,    the richest of the people.[c]

13 All glorious is the princess in her chamber, with robes interwoven with gold.

14 In many-colored robes she is led to the king, with her virgin companions following behind her.

15 With joy and gladness they are led along as they enter the palace of the king.

16 In place of your fathers shall be your sons; you will make them princes in all the earth.

17 I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations;    therefore nations will praise you forever and ever.



Luke 10:25-42

English Standard Version

The Parable of the Good Samaritan

25 And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” 26 He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” 27 And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” 28 And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

Martha and Mary

38 Now as they went on their way, Jesus[b] entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house. 39 And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching. 40 But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.” 41 But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, 42 but one thing is necessary.[c] Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her.”

ObservationIt is such a beautiful thing that GOD is reminding me in Psalm 45, be devoted to me like once were, I want YOUR whole attention, I want YOUR Love and devotion. My Spirit loves HIM yet my human nature fails to fully devote myself to HIM because of my physical needs, and emotional needs. Yet GOD is telling me to focus on HIM because HE is in love with me. HE has reminded me that I was once this Mary who sat at HIS feet in Luke 10, but why have I come to love the lawyer that questioned many of JESUS laws? Because GOD used me to save me from trouble, but HE wants me to see that it was not because the Lawyer amazing but because HE is amazing! How HE brought our paths together and how GOD raised a really good lawyer, HE loved this lawyer, it's just too bad that I have come to love him too. But I only came to love HIM because GOD told me our future. Now I have come to observe that loving an imperfect man is breaking me especially a man who does not love my JESUS.

ApplicationI will ask My KING and the Love of my life JESUS to remove my heart from this person, remove my attention, remove my devotion and love for this person because JESUS is my greatest Love and if I let myself be distracted from focusing on JESUS, it will be my ruin. I am already ruined just loving and praying for such a man. The scriptures all connect when GOD speaks to me and I praise GOD how HE speaks to me in such a way just as HE spoke to me using 2 devotions regarding Stephen. GOD is now showing me the technique to love people vs loving GOD. My whole heart and devotion should only be GOD's and I am only to love other people just as I love myself. Loving GOD should never be the same as loving people. I will train myself to Loving GOD more than loving any other thing because it is only in devoting myself to HIM that I am not ruined, I am safe.

PrayersDear AVI,O GOD My FATHER I bless YOU for YOU are HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, faithful and true and there is NONE in heaven and earth like YOU! KING JESUS have mercy on me O GOD, and help me to always be devoted and in love with YOU. Do not let me fall in love with anyone but YOU because my heart should always and only be YOURS. Do not test me beyond what I can bear O GOD and do not allow me to fail YOU because I am ruined when I fail YOU, when I make YOU Jealous, I am ruined. So I pray for YOU to be Sovereign over all of us, let YOUR kingdom come and let YOUR will be done here on earth as it is in Heaven! KING JESUS have YOUR way in Stephen and Benita, please not only save them but have YOUR way in them, be their GOD, be their greatest love, and I pray for the deliverance and healing of Janine Rose, Carlo, Sandro, Jennifer Velasco, and that they will also devote themselves to YOU. O GOD, I pray that YOU continue to humble us all, humble us so that YOU are not against us. Give us all we need, YOUR WORD, YOUR LOVE, YOUR SPIRIT, YOUR guidance, YOUR wisdom, give us my parents healing and love for YOU more than for any other thing! Forgive all our sins forgive us O GOD, as YOU give us grace to forgive everyone. Do not lead us to testing and tribulations O GOD please, have mercy on us for we are but grass that fades, and deliver us from all our trials for YOURS is the Glory and Honor and Power and Praise KING JESUS!
In the Name of YESHUA Amen!
